Just suppose this…

Suppose that Jesus Christ in Scripture has identified Himself as the Word of God. "The WORD became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the ONE and ONLY, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." John 1:14

Suppose that God’s Word commanded you to study His Word. "Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget my words or swerve from them." Proverbs 4:5

Suppose that God’s Word commanded you to study Jesus Christ. "If anyone chooses to do God’s will, he will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own." John 7:17

Just suppose these things to be true.

Suppose that you chose not to study God’s Word or even that you chose not to study certain parts of God’s Word. "My people are fools; they do not know me. They are senseless children; they have no understanding. They are skilled in doing evil; they know not how to do good." Jeremiah 4:22

Suppose that you chose not to study Jesus Christ as He is revealed in the Word. "He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him." John 1:10

Just suppose these things to be true.

Would you then suppose that Jesus Christ was talking about you when He said, "So everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven, but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven." Matthew 10:32-33
